.. to IPv6....

I want my billion of personal IP addresses. Not that I will ever use more then two or there, but you know, Mrs LaurV is a very enterprising person, she could find a good use of them (plus her own billion...)... In fact, she does not need to think too much: she will need all possible connections in the same time if she starts talking with her relatives over IP... (now that was mean...)

edit: you should see this map...

Right now! Fast! till it does not change.

It's way more than a billion. tbh, adding 8 bits would be more than enough, and it's just another 1-3 digit number if you do that. 64-bits is already insane, so 128-bits is literally insanity squared.
